Given explanation: Equals tells you that this is the outcome, therefore it is equivalent to an equal sign. More than is equivalent to a plus sign (showing addition), quotient is equivalent to division, and equals is equivalent to an equal sign.Thus the expression will be       5    +          z      7        =    12

Let&#039;s split this sentence up:&quot;Five more than&quot; refers to adding something by #5#.&quot;The quotient of z divided by seven&quot; refers to #z/7#.Finally, &quot;equals 12&quot; refers to setting everything above equal to #12#.Combining everything above, we get:#5 + z/7 = 12#
